Chapter 201: This is Politics
On the other side of New York, Spear agents Shang Qi and Li Qianhuan have now become special commissioners for communication between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Spear. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Because of various relations, the relationship between China and the United States has been in a state of antagonism for a long time, and even if it has begun to ease up in the last 30 years, the struggle between the open and the secret has never stopped.
Everyone laughed on the surface, but the thing of stabbing the knife in the back and stumbling under the stumbling was often done.
Therefore, the relationship between Aegis and Shenspear, the two largest intelligence agencies in the world, is also very delicate. The origins of these two organizations must be mentioned here.
Aegis and Aegis have their origins in the ancient Brotherhood of Aegis, which was founded in 2,600 BC after humanity first faced a xenomorph invasion. The earliest leader was the only leader of Egypt who was made a god in the form of a mortal: Imhetep.
And the Aegis Brotherhood is a fusion of elites from all walks of life in the East and the West under the rally of Imhetep. Whether it's the brightest scientist, the wisest philosopher, the most elegant artist.
All other outstanding people in human society will have the opportunity to join this remarkable organization after they have endured and passed the tests of the Brotherhood of the Aegis.
By the time of the Han Dynasty in China, the leadership of the Brotherhood of the Holy Aegis had passed into the hands of Zhang Heng (78-???? AD), one of China's most prominent scientists and writers.
He is the only mortal in the Aegis Brotherhood who has a written record of being able to pick up Imhetep's spear and talk to the gods at the same time.
Before Zhang Heng stepped down as the leader of the Aegis Brotherhood, he convened an impromptu meeting, and the Aegis Brotherhood decided to store the two sacred relics circulated by the Brotherhood, the spear and the shield, separately rather than all in the hands of one leader.
At this point, the Brotherhood of the Holy Aegis has a different sanctuary from the east to the west. The Aegis was deposited in Europe, in the Immortal City beneath Rome. The spear is stored in China, and where it is stored is top secret.
The formation of S.H.I.E.L.D. was driven by Tony's father, Howard Stark Sr., due to the fall of the Brotherhood of Aegis (this story was told in the previous article).
The Spear Bureau was founded a little earlier than S.H.I.E.L.D., but they weren't called that name in the earliest days. And this organization may have a little more secrets than S.H.I.E.L.D. has come from.
At the very least, most of the members of S.H.I.E.L.D. don't know the secret history, the truth about what the big names in history deliberately hid.
Now, apart from Captain Rogers, who knew about the existence of the Aegis Brotherhood because of his membership in the Illuminati, and that history that has been hidden, do anyone else in S.H.I.E.L.D. know what Howard Stark was trying to do with S.H.I.E.L.D.? Maybe Nick the One-Eyed Dragon knew, but Captain Rogers couldn't guarantee that Nick knew 100% of all of this, especially now that he was arrested.
Captain Rogers, however, had a feeling as if these two agents of the Spear Bureau knew more than the average S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.
Especially when he heard Coulson say to him: "That girl (Li Qianhuan) said something about the shield being knocked off at that time, and I don't understand what she meant." ”
Maybe Li Qianhuan said this carelessly, but a professionally trained agent would really blurt out important things like this? If this girl spoke so bluntly, the Divine Spear Bureau would send her to the United States?
Captain Rodgers felt that it might be a temptation from the other side, but he didn't know if it was good or bad.
Now that the two agents of the Spear Bureau have become the liaison between the two intelligence services, S.H.I.E.L.D. needs to arrange a place for them to live for a long time. Instead of staying in a hotel all the time, that kind of confidentiality and security is too low.
But they can't be placed in the staff dormitories inside S.H.I.E.L.D., which is a bit too unruly. So Hill arranged a place for them to live on Long Island, not far from where Captain Rogers lived, and it could be considered a half-monitoring of their activities.
So the matter of taking the two of them to their new residence was also left to Captain Rogers.
"It's a nice community, it's safe and it's private enough. Captain Rogers took the two to their new home.
"And I live nearby, so you can always come to me if you need anything. Captain Rogers seemed to be casually speaking, "After all, the spear and the shield are two sides of the same coin. ”
"Yes, everyone is doing intelligence, but the object of effectiveness is different. However, we share a common ground when it comes to dealing with terrorists and other human threats. Shang Qi smiled in response to Captain Rogers' words.
But what he said was a little ambiguous, as if he had said something, but as if he had said nothing. Captain Rogers still doesn't quite understand the Chinese mindset.
Maybe next time we should let the Nightkin and Professor Charles analyze what these people mean?
Since Shang Qi didn't plan to explain anything, and Li Qianhuan now seemed to have a firm mouth, Rogers knew that he couldn't find anything useful, so he could only say goodbye first.
After Steve Rogers is gone.
"Boss, why didn't we tell S.H.I.E.L.D. that Tony Stark might be killed in the first place? No matter how accurate this news is, for the U.S. government, even if there is a 100% chance, they will use 100% of their strength to protect Tony Stark. After all, he is too important to the U.S. government. Li Qianhuan sat on the sofa and looked at Shang Qi, who seemed to be thinking about something, and asked.
Li Qianhuan's words interrupted Shang Qi's thoughts, and he spoke: "For many reasons, including politics and so on. ”
When Li Qianhuan heard such a thing as politics, he felt that his head was big: "What politics?"
"Tony Stark's Ark Reactor is very useful, but the cost is terrible. Except for the important buildings or headquarters facilities of mega-corporations and consortia, as well as some special high-tech laboratories, few people can afford to use the Ark Reactor as an energy source. Shang Qi found himself a comfortable place to do it.
Just now, he and Li Qianhuan checked it, and there was no eavesdropping equipment in the house. Hill wasn't stupid either, knowing that even if he installed any eavesdropping and surveillance equipment in the house, the two agents would find out, so he was generous enough to pretend nothing at all, as a sign of sincerity.
Sure that there would be no threat of eavesdropping when he spoke, Shang Qi could tell Li Qianhuan some things.
"For ordinary people, especially ordinary factories that produce products with low added value, such as jeans and slippers, the burden of Ark Energy is enough to bankrupt them. While energy itself can drive down prices, these companies cannot afford the upfront retrofit costs. Shang Qi pointed out the window to New York City.
"Look at New York, the most prosperous city in the world, so much time has passed, and under the premise that Stark Group is transforming its new energy infrastructure at cost price, only the bustling area of Manhattan and the headquarters of a small number of super consortia can afford to use the Ark reactor. Shang Qi was telling the truth.
"The successful ignition of the Suiren No. 1 of China Nuclear Power Corporation, which indicates a huge breakthrough in traditional nuclear power plants. Our technology may not look as sophisticated as the Ark, but it is cheaper, and with relatively few modifications to the traditional infrastructure, we can make the existing infrastructure use the energy produced by the Suiren nuclear power plant. That's a lot cheaper than Tony Stark completely ripping out old infrastructure and replacing it with a new one. ”
"Tony Stark's designs are great, but sometimes he doesn't think too much about the actual cost of use. Not all countries can afford to play his game. ”
Li Qianhuan listened to Shang Qi's words and nodded: "I understand all this, but what does this have to do with not clearly telling S.H.I.E.L.D. these news?"
"This is politics! Shang Qi smiled helplessly: "If you tell S.H.I.E.L.D. the news directly, then there will be nothing to do with us." This good guy can't let S.H.I.E.L.D. do it all, win Stark's favor, and many things will be much easier in the future. Including the first access to the Ark spaceship and the like. ”
"But what if we hadn't been able to save Tony? The plan was still risky, and Tony would have died on the spot. Li Qianhuan was still a little confused.
"If he is really going to die, then he can only die. Shang Qi's tone was a little heavy: "Politics is like this, we can't choose." Since we have the Suiren nuclear power plant, we have a certain amount of capital. For some of the bigwigs, maybe it's in their better interest that Tony is dead. ”
Li Qianhuan's mouth opened slightly into an O-shape: "But, it's Latvia......"
"If Tony dies, do you think Latville will be able to keep itself? Now the P5 have not waged a real all-out war against Doom because they still have Tony Stark on hand. If Tony dies and the helium-3 program comes to a standstill, then the days of peace in Latvia will be over. The UN army will completely trample through every piece of land in Eastern Europe and turn Latvia into a scorched earth!" Shang Qi sighed slightly after saying this, politics is sometimes so cruel.
Li Qianhuan also sighed deeply, her previous contact with Tony Stark left a good impression on her, although he had a bad reputation, but it still had to be said that Tony was an attractive man.
Shang Qi rested for a while and was about to go out, Li Qianhuan asked, "Where is the boss?"
"Go and catch up with my fellow disciples. Shang Qi replied.
"Who?"
"The weakest iron fist that Kunlun has ever had, Daniel Randall. ”
